Very tiny points, all. What was the use for these? Dart tips? Small diameter arrow shafts? Call me curious.

well up here they used them on buffalo and about everything else that needed to be kilt.
Arrowshafts weren’t very wide either.

Huh. Interesting. I keep learning stuff on here everyday. Thanks Quito. If that was a standard hunting point, there must be a ton of them out there, undiscovered yet, because of their small size. I really enjoy your posts. Thanks.

a small sharp point can slip between ribs and can penetrate easier and deeper than a big point. True arrowheads were not very big.

Found in around 1985 close to the Arkansas River, north of Buena Vista, Colo. I have one smaller, but it's not complete.
